"Steve" wrote I believe that if you look at modern diesels currently being produced and sold, you'll find virtually NONE rated at more than 50-60 horsepower that are not turbo-supercharged. And equally few that are strictly mechanically blown (the Detroit Diesel 2-strokes are no longer in production). The VAST majority are, indeed, turbo-supercharged. Not true of some of our school busses that were produced in the past 5 or so years. They make up for the lack of super or turbocharging with more cubic inches. I say AGAIN... what percentage of the market is that? Tiny. And they only TRY to make up with more cubic inches- a DT466E would run rings around them.
